BUILDING VALUATION TABLES 89-246 1601 07/18/89 1
BACKGROUND
Building permit and plan check fees are assessed based on the
valuation of the project . Valuation for new construction is
based on valuation tables which list the average cost per square
foot based on the occupancy and the type of construction materi-
als used.
PURPOSE
This policy will provide for yearly adjustments in the valuation
tables . Yearly adjustments will provide revenues which will more
closely follow departmental expenses . They will provide for an
orderly , predictable adjustment to fees in relatively small
increments . The smaller adjustments will help to reduce the
impact on the construction industry.
POLICY
1 . The Building Valuation Data tables , as published in "Building
• Standards" magazine by the International Conference of Build-
ing Officials , shall be the tables used to determine the
valuation of applicable buildings for the purpose of determin-
ing plan check and building permit fees .
2 . The most current tables available on January 30 of each year
shall be used to determine building valuation , and the result-
ing permit fees , from the first Monday in February for a
duration of one year.
3 . Notification of the impending change of valuation table shall
be posed at the Building Division counter for at least one
week prior to implementation of the new tables .
4 . All permits issued on or after the implementation date shall
reflect the permit fees derived from the new valuation tables .
5 . At the discretion of the Director of Planning and Community
Development, minor deviation from this policy may be made on
a case by case basis .
